Due to this severe injury of Delhi Capitals, he has not yet hit the ground in this season of IPL 2021.
The young captain of Delhi Capitals Rishabh Pant has received a lot of good news even before the Indian Premier League’s crucial match against Mumbai Indians. The news is that the team’s fast bowler Ishant Sharma has become fully fit to enter this match. Ishant could not play Delhi’s first three matches in IPL 2021 due to a leg injury. However, in this match, Pant will make him a part of playing XI or give him some more rest, it will be a matter to be seen. Delhi Capitals coach and former Australian captain Ricky Ponting had informed that Ishant is suffering from a leg injury. Although he is fit now, this is sure to give more edge to Delhi’s fast bowling attack.
Ishant Sharma, a fast bowler from Team India and part of Delhi Capitals in the IPL, was also injured in the UAE last season and was ruled out of the tournament only after playing the first match. The injury was so severe that he had to stay away from the Australian tour too. Although he made a comeback in the Test series against England, but then he was hit by an injury in the IPL, due to which he was ruled out of the first three matches.
In the last clash, Mumbai’s name was won.
Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians are scheduled to compete on Tuesday. Both teams will come face to face for the first time this season. Earlier in the IPL, the clash between the two took place in the final of last season, in which Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai defeated Delhi to record a record fifth title. The Delhi team has won two out of the first three matches this season. Ishant Sharma has played a total of 90 matches so far in the Indian Premier League. In this, he has taken 72 wickets. During this, his best performance was five wickets for 12 runs. Ishant Sharma’s economy rate is 8.09 in the IPL.
